Respective dimension and shape of each component in the drawings are only intended to exemplarily illustrate the contents of the disclosure, rather than to demonstrate the practical dimension or proportion of components of a display panel for the blind and a display device.


In an embodiment of the disclosure:


According to a general technical concept of embodiments of the present disclosure, as illustrated in FIG. 1, in a first aspect of the embodiments of the disclosure, there is provided an exemplary display panel for the blind, comprising: a back plate 1 and a plurality of display units arranged in an array on the back plate 1, e.g., in a form of certain shape such as rectangular shape, diamond shape, equilateral polygon shape, or the like, each of the plurality of display units comprising: supports 2 provided on the back plate 1; and an elastic film layer 3 provided on top of the supports 2 and spaced apart from the back plate 1. The back plate 1, and the elastic film layer 3 and the supports 2 of each of the plurality of display units cooperate with one another to define an accommodation cavity 4 thereamong of a respective one display unit of the plurality of display units, and the respective one of the plurality display units is configured to deform in a condition that it is energized so as to drive the accommodation cavity 4 as defined above to change its shape and in turn to squeeze the elastic film layer 3 to project outwards, such that a projection portion is formed at a location of each of the plurality of display units.


In another embodiment of the disclosure,


As illustrated in FIG. 2 and FIG. 6-8, the display panel for the blind, comprises the back plate 1 and the plurality of display units arranged in an array on the back plate 1, e.g., in a form of a certain shape such as rectangular shape, diamond shape, equilateral polygon shape, or the like, each of the plurality of display units comprising: supports 2 provided on the back plate 1; and an elastic film layer 3 provided on top of the supports 2 and spaced apart from the back plate 1. The elastic film layer 3 is for example an elastic membrane formed by a material of polydimethylsiloxane and is fixedly connected at the top of the supports 2 and has its rigidity less than that of the back plate 1. The back plate 1, and the elastic film layer 3 and the supports 2 of each of the plurality of display units cooperate with one another to define collectively the accommodation cavity 4 thereamong of a respective one display unit of the plurality of display units. And the supports 2 for defining each accommodation cavity 4 comprises: a supporting body 21; and at least one pair of positive electrode plate 22 and negative electrode plate 23, the positive and negative electrode plates of each pair of the at least one pair being fixed on respective one of the supporting bodies and located opposite to each other, respectively. For example, the positive electrode plate 22 of each pair of the at least one pair is located on a first inner side of the supporting body 21, and the negative electrode plate 23 of each pair of the at least one pair is located on a second inner side of the supporting body 21 opposite to the first inner side. The supporting bodies may be formed by an elastic insulating material, and configure to connect the back plate 1 and the elastic film layer 3 with each other and secure them together, so as to implement a supporting and fixing effect. Specifically, each of the supporting bodies is in a cylindrical shape with a cross section of round shape, rectangular shape, diamond shape or the like, and is connected fixedly at a top end thereof with the elastic film layer 3 and connected fixedly at a bottom end thereof with the back plate 1. The positive and negative electrode plates comprise a material of an elastic material, typically a conductive elastic material, such as a conductive elastic metallic material, and a conductive elastic polymer, and/or a dielectric elastomer, a polyelectrolyte, or a piezoelectric polymer. Furthermore, the positive and negative electrode plates of each pair of the at least one pair are fixed on inner surfaces of respective supporting bodies and opposite to each other; in other words, the positive and negative electrode plates are secured respectively on side faces of respective supporting bodies opposite to each other, i.e., side faces facing towards each other, inside each of the plurality of display units. For example, the cross section of each supporting body is in a form of rectangular shape. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the positive and negative electrode plates are for example provided respectively on supporting bodies of each of the plurality of display units on both left and right sides thereof; or the positive and negative electrode plates are for example provided respectively on supporting bodies of each of the plurality of display units on both front and rear sides thereof; or alternatively, the positive and negative electrode plates are for example provided respectively on supporting bodies of each of the plurality of display units on both left and rights sides and on both front and rear sides thereof, i.e., on four sides of respective supporting bodies, such that the positive and negative electrode plates may squeeze inwards in four directions (i.e., frontwards, rearwards, leftwards, rightwards) of the accommodation cavity 4 by inward deformation thereof in a condition that the display panel is energized. The electrode plates located adjacent to each other or one another are spaced apart mutually on the supporting bodies, respectively; and adjacent electrode plates on a same supporting body of the supporting bodies may be electrically insulated from each other or one another by the same supporting body. In the embodiment, the electrode plates on the respective supporting bodies are connected fixedly at respective top ends thereof with the elastic film layer 3, and connected fixedly at respective bottom ends thereof with the back plate 1. Or in an alternative embodiment, the electrode plates on the respective supporting bodies are disconnected at respective top ends thereof with the elastic film layer 3 and at respective bottom ends thereof with the back plate 1, i.e., a length of each of the electrode plates in a vertical direction perpendicular to the back plate 1 is provided to be smaller than a length of each supporting body in the vertical direction. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the length of each of the electrode plates in the vertical direction is further provided to be not less than ½ of the length of each supporting body in the vertical direction, such that once the electrode plates are deformed, the supporting bodies at which the electrodes plates are respectively located are driven to change shapes thereof so as to squeeze inwards the accommodation cavity 4.


As illustrated in FIG. 2, each of the positive and negative electrode plates is connected with a power supply electrode, the respective power supply electrodes are configured to energize the positive and negative electrode plates respectively, and for example secured onto the back plate 1, the supports 2 or the elastic film layer 3. In an alternative embodiment, the respective power supply electrodes are directly connected with aforementioned positive and negative electrode plates respectively. When the at least one pair of positive and negative electrode plates opposite to each other in a same single display unit are energized by the respective power supply electrodes, the at least one pair of positive and negative electrode plates are attracted towards each other by an effect applied by an electrostatic force therebetween so as to approach towards each other and thus cause respective deformations and in turn deformations of respective supporting bodies at which the positive and negative electrode plates are located respectively. As such, the supporting bodies are squeezed towards the accommodation cavity 4 form outside to inside of the latter. Since the back plate 1 at the bottom of the accommodation cavity 4 is formed by rigid material and thus is not readily deformable, then a squeezing force applied directing to the accommodation cavity 4 may essentially act totally on the elastic film layer 3 at an upper portion of the accommodation cavity 4 such that the elastic film layer projects outwards to form the projection portion at the location of the respective single one of the plurality of display units. When the at least one pair of positive and negative electrode plates opposite to each other in a same single display unit are de-energized from the respective power supply electrodes, the supporting bodies may return under an action of an elastic restoring force, so as to eliminate the squeezing effect inwards the accommodation cavity 4 and in turn to restore a smoothness of a surface of the elastic film layer.


As illustrated in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, in the embodiment, as labeled therein, the display panel for the blind has a length labeled by ‘H’, and a cross section labeled by ‘ABCD’. For facilitating a calculation, provided that the cross section ‘ABCD’ is a square with a side length labeled by ‘a’. The positive and negative electrode plates are formed by an ion exchange membrane composite material, which may be expressed by a molecular formula as below:




embedded image


The ion exchange membrane composite material has an amount of deformation over 20% under a voltage of 4˜7v, with the positive and negative electrode plates being provided on both left and right sides of the respective supporting body respectively and connected at respective top ends thereof with the elastic film layer 3 and at respective bottom ends thereof with the back plate 1 respectively. When the electrode plates are energized to deform, the supporting bodies at both left and right sides in turn deform. Once the deformations take place, provided that the length of each of the electrode plates is labeled by ‘L’, and a recession depth of each of the electrode plates is labeled by ‘h1’; and for facilitating calculation, provided that H is invariable, then, a variation of an area represents a variation in volume, and a variation in an area of a longitudinal section of the accommodation cavity 4 at respective supporting bodies at both sides may be approximated to be 2*½*h1*L=h1*L. And for facilitating calculation, provided that once the deformations occur, the elastic film layer 3 remains to be planar in surface thereof but projects wholly outwards, i.e., the surface of the elastic film layer 3 is considered to be translated outwards, then a height of the deformation of the elastic film layer 3 is h2=h2*L/2. As such, by way of example, in a condition that a=3 cm, once the deformations take place, L is 3.3 cm, h1 is about 0.3 cm, and then there is a variation in height ‘h2’ of about 0.5 cm.


In the embodiment, the accommodation cavity 4 is filled with a liquid material or a gas material. In an exemplary embodiment, the liquid material is silicon oil, and more specifically, such as amino silicone oil, epoxy modified silicone oil, or carboxyl modified silicone oil. In an exemplary embodiment, the gas material is a gaseous material; and more specifically, air or inert gas. Therefore, once the accommodation cavity 4 deforms, e.g., the squeezing force is delivered to the elastic film layer 3 via the liquid material or the gas material contained therein, such that the elastic film layer 3 may form the projection portion more readily under the action of the squeezing force.


In the embodiment, an outer surface of each electrode plate is, for example, covered with a dielectric layer 24, as shown in FIG. 6, which dielectric layer is configured to insulate the respective electrode plate from ambient environment, so as to prevent the electrode plate from short circuiting and in turn any damage to respective display unit.


In another embodiment of the disclosure:


This embodiment differs from aforementioned embodiment based on the at least one pair of positive and negative electrode plates, lying in that: the supports comprise: respective supporting bodies; and at least one pair of electromagnet pieces of opposite magnetic polarities (i.e., in each pair, one of the electromagnet pieces has a N magnetic polarity, shown as 22′ in FIG. 7, and the other one of the electromagnet pieces has a S magnetic polarity, shown as 23′ in FIG. 7) provided on a same supporting body of the supporting bodies, rather than at least one pair of positive and negative electrode plates as above, the at least one pair of electromagnet pieces of opposite magnetic polarities are electrically connected at respective bottom ends with the back plate, and are connected fixedly at respective top ends with the elastic film layer. When the at least one pair of electromagnet pieces of opposite magnetic polarities provided on a same supporting body of the supporting bodies are energized by the respective power supply electrodes, the at least one pair of electromagnet pieces of opposite magnetic polarities are attracted towards each other by an effect applied by a magnetic force therebetween (rather than an effect applied by an electrostatic force therebetween as in above embodiment which is provided by the at least one pair of energized positive and negative electrode plates) and thus deform respectively, so as to squeeze the accommodation cavity and to project the elastic film layer outwards to form a projection portion.


In still another embodiment:


This embodiment differs from aforementioned embodiment based on the at least one pair of electromagnet pieces of opposite magnetic polarities, lying in that: the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided respectively with electrode plates of a same electric polarity (positive electric polarity or negative electric polarity), or alternatively the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided respectively with electromagnet pieces of a same magnetic polarity (N magnetic polarity or S magnetic polarity).


By way of example, the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided respectively with positive electrode plates, or alternatively the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided respectively with electromagnet pieces of a first magnetic polarity (one of N magnetic polarity and S magnetic polarity), the positive electrode plats (or the electromagnet pieces of the first magnetic polarity) being connected with respective power supply electrodes, respectively. Or otherwise, in another alternative embodiment, the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided respectively with negative electrode plates, or alternatively the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided respectively with electromagnet pieces of a second magnetic polarity (i.e., the other one of N magnetic polarity and S magnetic polarity) opposite to the first magnetic polarity, the negative electrode plates (or the electromagnet pieces of the second magnetic polarity) being connected with respective power supply electrodes, respectively. In a more specific embodiment, e.g., the elastic film layer is provided with a first positive electrode plate and the back plate is provided with a second positive electrode plate opposite to the first positive electrode plate, and when the first positive electrode plate and the second positive electrode plate are energized respectively by respective power supply electrodes, the first positive electrode plate and the second positive electrode plate repel each other under an action of an electrostatic force applied therebetween; and since a rigidity of the back plate is larger than a rigidity of the elastic film layer, then the elastic film layer projects outwards so as to form a projection portion, which may be touched by the blind such that a combination of projection portions on the display panel may be read out to form language for the blind.


In yet another embodiment:


There is provided a display device, as illustrated in FIG. 5, comprising: the display panel 5 for the blind as mentioned in above embodiments; and housing configured to receive the display panel. The back plate in the display panel 5 is provided with power supply electrodes. When the plurality of display units are energized by the power supply electrodes, the elastic film layer of each of the plurality of display units projects outwards so as to form respective projection portion. The plurality of projection portions may combine with one another to form text or image, which may be touched and thus read out by the blind so as to implement a purpose of reading out the display device by touch of the blind.


As compared with relevant art, some beneficial effects are provided by embodiments of the disclosure, as follows:


1. As to the display panel for the blind provided in the embodiments of the disclosure, when it is driven by electric power, the plurality of elastic film layers provided thereon may project outwards so as to form respective projection portions, several projection portions being combined with one another so as to form the language expression for the blind, i.e., so as to implement a purpose of reading out the display device by touch of the blind.


2. As to the display panel for the blind provided in the embodiments of the disclosure, once the supports are energized by power supply electrodes in the display panel, the electrode plate or electromagnet pieces opposite to each other on the supports may attract mutually under the action of the electrostatic force or the magnetic force so as to approach towards each other and to drive the supports to approach mutually, such that the supports squeeze inwards the accommodation cavity and the liquid material or the gas material contained within the accommodation cavity in turn deform, and then the elastic film layers project outwards to form projection portions respectively, which projection portions may be touched and thus read out by the blind so as to implement a purpose of reading out the display device by touch of the blind.


3. In other embodiments of the disclosure, the elastic film layer and the back plate are provided with positive electrode plates or electromagnet pieces of a first magnetic polarity, or provided with negative electrode plates or electromagnet pieces of a second magnetic polarity opposite to the first magnetic polarity. Once the electrode plates (or the electromagnet pieces) provided on the respective elastic film layer and the back plate are energized by the respective power supply electrodes in the display panel, the electrode plates (or the electromagnet pieces) repel each other under an action of an electrostatic force (or an electromagnetic force) applied therebetween; and since a rigidity of the back plate is larger than a rigidity of the elastic film layer, then the elastic film layer projects outwards so as to form a projection portion, which may be touched by the blind such that a combination of projection portions on the display panel may be read out to form language for the blind.


4. In embodiments of the disclosure, the outer surfaces of the electrode plates are for example plated additionally with a dielectric layer, which dielectric layer is configured to insulate the respective electrode plate from ambient environment, so as to prevent the electrode plate from short circuiting.
